1. "In The Dark of The Night" by John Saul

This chilling novel follows a group of families vacationing on a lake in the summer. When a mysterious room is discovered by the three teen boys, it unleashes something insidious. If you're a fan of scary stories, this is perfect for you.

2. "Verity" by Colleen Hoover

Colleen Hoover writes this novel with such incredible detail and such a well thought out plot that I actually read this in two days. "Verity" tells the story of an author hired to finish a novel that was started by the love interest of the novel's late wife.

The main character moves in and discovers insane truths while digging through the notes left behind for her. I don't want to give away too much, but this thriller had me on the edge of my seat.

3. "Without Merit" by Colleen Hoover

Another Colleen Hoover novel (sorry, I'm obsessed), but a completely different genre. This novel follows a quirky family that lives in a church. They are the outcasts of their town and their children are reminded of this every day. The novel touches on a lot of family issues and how truth overcomes everything.

Definitely an easy read, but something that will help you escape and entertain you.

4. "Where The Crawdads Sing" by Delia Owens 

I haven't read this novel yet, but I hear it is truly one of the best books. The story is a coming-of-age novel with harsh realities and eye-opening truths. This novel is said to be very heavy, so proceed with caution, but definitely put this on your list!

5. "Rated" by Melissa Grey

Another novel on my list that I haven't gotten to yet is "Rated" by Melissa Grey. If you are a "Black Mirror" fan, you will definitely want to get your hands on this one. The story follows six characters experiencing the positive and negative effects a world controlled by your ratings gives.
